I am thankful for each and every one of you. Thank you for reading, for the advice, for the tough love, and for always being there. This blog has been such a great release for me over this past year and I am so so thankful.

From the bottom of my heart thank you for being there and seeing me through this year. I am taking this day to relax and reflect on all that I am thankful for in my life.

I have an amazing husband, a loving family, all of you awesome people, a roof over my head, food on the table, a car to drive, and so many more blessings.

Enjoy this day with your friends and family and remember all the simple things we can be thankful for!

Definitely – I love to cook, Lisa has done a good job of letting go in the kitchen so we can all cook, and our younger son is just amazing … moderation was the challenge and none of us ever got overly full!

My parents are from the UK and we have mincemeat pies during Christmas, it’s a tradition for us. Mincemeat is made with a variety of fresh, dried, and candied fruits that are all stewed in a delicious mixture of butter, apple juice, dark brown sugar, rum, brandy, orange zest and ground spices. It’s used in tarts and pies and is oh so yum!

Happy Thanksgiving, enjoy your day relaxing. As a Canadian it’s just Thursday for me 🙂

I think Mincemeat pies are falling out of favor – growing up they were my grandfather’s favorite and many of the aunts and uncles liked them as well. But now that they are in their 70s and 80s I just don’t see mincemeat much at all – my brother in law likes it, so if we see them we will have it, but that is about it.

Ours was low key and PERFECT! I missed my family, but it was a nice day with just the hubby and I! How was yours? I was listening to Christmas Music yesterday while cooking 🙂 Ready to put up my tree now!
